What she didn’t expect was that Paul would also insist on going with her, and, if Paul’s going, Theo’s going too. I know how easy it is for grief to surprise you, even when you think you have your arms around it. It's not a linear experience, and while I wanted to write a book that prominently featured a healing journey, there are certainly moments where grief walks alongside the MC.

You, with a View is angsty, atmospheric perfection. While navigating grief’s pain as well as its transformative power, this road trip romance is an unforgettable journey of tenderhearted healing, scorching chemistry, and divinely witty banter.” —Chloe Liese, author of Two Wrongs Make a Right I cannot believe this was Jessica Joyce's debut novel! The writing felt so good, so familiar, and I just couldn't put it down. This isn't out until July, but I already need her next one, after reading a preview at the end of this one😭😂Wow it’s been a long 3 months but then YWAV comes along reminding me EXACTLY what a 5⭐️ read should look like. I do wish the end had wrapped up a little faster, but that’s purely because I love the HEA trope, I felt that it was coming and couldn’t wait to see it. I also really wish this had been multiple POV, I would have loved to see Theo’s POV or maybe even a chapter from Paul. This is the story of Noelle Shepard, who’s in her late twenties, living with her parents, unemployed, a long distance from her actual dream job, and grieving her beloved grandmother, who passed away suddenly. So, you know, it’s not looking good for her. Hello! Now that this book is making its way into the world, I wanted to take a moment to list out the content considerations so that you can take care of yourself either before or as you read You, with a View: there was a lot of depth to the story and the grief part of it was handled with the care it deserved, i loved that.

You, With A View, was so freaking cute. Great debut romance with likable characters all around. The MC connection felt real. They had a past together so it was easy to believe they were falling for each other in the present. Paul was so adorable. Such a great grandfather and constant supporter of Theo. The writing style. There were some overused quotes that I've seen in too many romance novels, and I'm not talking about "I love you", but the writing was great. I couldn't complain.I loved Theo from his very first line in the book. He calls her Shep, which is a low blow, and they are not shy about needling each other and competing all the time, just like they did in high school. Who says their rivalry has to end?
